"The motel was close to SoFi Stadium. The room wasn't ready when I arrived, but the front desk staff was calm and polite. The room was large, clean, and quiet, and had a microwave and fridge. The furnishings were slightly worn, but the bed was comfortable and I slept well. The included breakfast was disappointing. The gated garage parking was convenient and felt secure. Good experience overall.2021-12-09"
"Located in a sketchy part of town. The motel staff was so accommodating and understanding, but the room was awful. It wasn't particularly clean and smelled horrible. It was so bad that we asked for another room, but the 2nd room wasn't much better. The entire place reeked of smoke. The elevator was broken. Breakfast was either a breakfast burrito or a nutri-grain bar.2021-12-06"
"OK location with easy access to the freeway. No easy way to get to the room from the parking garage. The motel elevators were broken.2021-11-23"

"Located in older, downtown area not far from LAX; not the best area, but I felt safe enough - lots of restaurants and grocery stores nearby - good place for the price - I had pets with me, so I was put in a 1st-floor room near the lobby; didn't enjoy hearing people scream at the front desk clerk at 3 AM almost every night - room was fairly clean, but the carpet was so filthy it turned my socks and cats' paws black - had a kitchen with dishes, cookware, and utensils - the window faced a wall - housekeeper made the bed and replaced the towels, but never vacuumed or changed the bedding during my 14-night stay - staff was friendly and always greeted me - had an exercise room - laundry machines always seemed to be in use - small snack shop operated on the honor system - appreciated the free, gated parking.2012-10-01"
"The hotel clerks were polite and kind, but there were a lot of young people in and out and hanging in the parking lot, many without masks. The security guard and other employees didn't say anything. The AC in my room didn't work, and the carpet had stains. It was pretty peaceful on the 3rd floor.2020-09-05"
"The hotel was smoke-free, but I smelled marijuana in and around the building. There was a lot of noise, too. Poor water pressure in the shower. The staff wasn't friendly or accommodating. Stay away.2017-06-16"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
